The Shipping Weight includes the product, protective packaging material and the actual shipping box. In addition, the Shipping Weight may be adjusted for the Dimensional Weight (e.g. length, width & height) of a package. It is important to note that certain types of products (e.g. glass containers, liquids, fragile, refrigerated or ice packed) will often require protective packaging material. As such, these products will reflect a higher Shipping Weight compared to the unprotected product.

A primary function of Vitamin C is maintaining collagen, a protein necessary for the formation of connective tissue in skin, ligaments and bones. Vitamin C also aids in forming red blood cells, fighting bacterial infections, reducing allergy-producing substances, aids in the metabolism of amino acids and protects other vitamins from oxidation. We hear a lot about cats and dogs producing their own Vitamin C, however in our present environment, there is no way they can produce sufficient amounts for good health without getting additional C from their food and supplements.
